eSignal ActiveX Plugin for TS2000i
Setup guide and instructions for use
Setup
Before installing the eSignal ActiveX Plugin for TS2000i, make
sure GlobalServer is closed.
It is recommended that you also close all running applications.
Run the eSignal ActiveX Plugin for TS2000i installer. When the
installation routine is completed click Finish.
Open GlobalServer in either Online or Offline Mode.
In the main menu select File->Download from eSignal…
The Download from eSignal window will open.
Depending on the type of securities you have in GlobalServer,
you may need to add Items.
An Item is the combination of GlobalServer fields specifically Category
(Index, Bond, Stock, etc.), Exchange, Field (Trade, Bid or Ask) and
Resolution i.e. the History to Save (1 Tick, 1 Minute, 1 Day, etc.).
For the purpose of this Setup Guide we will add Index as an Item. The
same procedure can then be applied for all other Items.
Click Add Item… and the following window will open.
Select the desired Category (in this case Index) from the
dropdown menu.
Select the Exchange(s) that you want to include/exclude within
this Category, then select the Field(s) and Resolution(s) you need.
In this specific example we will be selecting Trade Record only and 1
Tick, 1 Minute and 1 Day as the History to Save.
Repeat the steps above to add any other Item you may need. For
each Item you can select a completely different set of Exchanges, Fields
and Resolutions.
Next click OK and you will be taken back to the Download from
eSignal window where the Item(s) are now listed in the Items to Download
box. Click on the Item and in the History Settings box you will see
listed the Field(s) and Resolution(s) you had selected.
Verify that all the boxes are checked as in the image above.
If you need to Edit or Remove an Item, right click on the Item
and select Edit or Remove from the context menu.
When you click Edit, you will be taken back to the Add Item window where
you can apply your changes. Once you have completed editing the Item,
click OK at which point you will be asked to confirm or cancel the
changes made.
You are now ready to download the data using the ActiveX
Plugin for TS2000i.
Use
In GlobalServer click File->Download from eSignal… (see first
image in this document). This will open the Download from eSignal window.
In the order select:
1. Item(s) to be downloaded.
2. Field(s) and Resolution(s) you want to download.
3. Start/End dates if downloading intraday data.
4. Start/End dates if downloading daily data.
5. Click OK.
The Download from eSignal window will close and you will be
taken back to GlobalServer where two windows will open specifically
Symbols to Download and Download Performance.
In the Symbol to Download window select the symbols for which
you want to download data then click OK.
The Symbols to Download window will then close and you can now
monitor the status of the download in the Download Performance window.
If at any time you wish to interrupt the download, select File->Stop
Download from eSignal on the main menu of GlobalServer.
Once the data is downloaded and imported in GlobalServer, the
Download Performance window will show Download Completed.
